Welcome to an unparalleled masterpiece of modern comfort and natural beauty, crafted by Lee Wetherington Homes, named America’s Best Builder by the National Association of Home Builders. Nestled on 7.83 intensely private, wooded acres in the exclusive equestrian community of The Forest at Panther Ridge, this 4,236 sq ft estate, inspired by timeless Southern architecture, offers 4 bedrooms, 4.5 bathrooms, an exercise room, a game room, and a pool house, all designed for a lifestyle where the indoors and outdoors blend seamlessly. Built in 2014, this home features hurricane-rated windows and sliders that ensure both beauty and safety. Situated on a ridge and located in Flood Zone X - the highest and safest designation in the area- this property offers unparalleled peace of mind in any weather. Step inside to a breathtaking entry with dramatic 23’ ceilings adorned with striking beams, while the rest of the home features soaring 10’ ceilings throughout. The open common area seamlessly blends the gourmet kitchen, music room, dining room, and gathering space. Custom cabinetry with shaker-style doors, dovetail drawers, and soft-close features enhance the kitchen, complemented by elegant quartz countertops and stainless-steel GE Café appliances for a sleek, modern look. Oversized porcelain tile floors flow throughout, while 8’ solid core interior doors provide exceptional soundproofing and durability for added privacy and peace. The luxurious primary suite, with its en-suite bathroom, overlooks the pool and opens to the exercise room and east lanai. Two additional bedrooms also feature en-suite bathrooms. The game room includes its own bathroom, and the laundry room even has a 48” dog bathing station! The pool features a Salt Chlorine Generator (a Florida GreenBuild feature) and a sun deck. Enjoy the gracious front porch on the north side, perfect for welcoming guests. The east lanai features a MALM wood-burning fireplace, adding a touch of mid-century modern elegance, while the west lanai overlooks the lake, offering sensational sunsets. Also overlooking the lake- a Ramada as well as a fire pit and deck, perfect for evening relaxation. The entire property is enclosed by 3-board fencing with no-climb dog fencing, ensuring privacy and security. This home is built to withstand the elements, with a standing seam metal roof featuring a durable Kynar finish and PGT Winguard impact-insulated low-e windows and doors, including Therma Tru impact French doors, providing unmatched protection and energy efficiency with Solar Ban 70 coating. The 3-course stem wall foundation, vapor barrier under the concrete slab, and steel reinforcement throughout ensure structural integrity. The engineered roof truss system is treated with borate, while R-19 Icynene foam and R-7 tailored foam inside block walls deliver superior insulation, soundproofing, and pest deterrence. Also included: Carrier 16 SEER HVAC system, a 50-gallon GE GeoSpring hybrid water heater, a 200-amp electric service with a subpanel for a future generator, and a 31x35’ 3-car garage with an electric vehicle charger. Located on a cul-de-sac, this estate is invisible from the road. The automatic gated entrance welcomes you to the property featuring stately oak trees, fruit trees, and a dedicated drive to RV parking with hookup and electric.
